420 Plus Installation Manual

Table 1-1 shows which annunciators are used for all combinations of configured primary and secondary units. For

example:

If the primary unit is pounds (lb) and the secondary unit is kilograms (kg), the

lb

LED is lit for primary

units,

kg

for secondary units.

If the primary unit is pounds (lb) and the secondary unit is short tons (tn), the

lb

LED is lit for primary

units,

kg

for secondary units. There is not an LED for short tons, so the

kg

LED is used as the secondary

units annunciator.

If the primary unit is short tons (tn) and the secondary unit is pounds (lb), the

lb

LED is lit for primary units

(tn), and

kg

is lit for secondary units (lb). Because there is no LED for short tons, the

lb

and

kg

LEDs are

used as primary and secondary units annunciators.

See Section on page 19 for more information about configuring primary and secondary display units.
